Speed up firefox

Recommended Posts

This made firefox run about 4 times quicker on my ISDN connection.

1. Type "about:config" in the adress field.
2. Set the value of network.http.pipelining to "true".
3. Set the value of network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to "100".
4. Set the value of network.http.proxy.pipelining to "true"
5. Set the value of nglayout.initialpaint.delay to "0"

I set all the stuff but I couldn't see the last one. I wonder what will happen to me.

Before you change the setting, please browse this site. It said that you need to make a new integer named "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set it to "0".

Right hand click at any place, then select new > integer. Then type nglayout.initialpaint.delay . Lastly set it to zero then closed all firefox. Then open firefox again...Confusing? :lol:

No, there is a site which tests the time it takes to load a load of tables...i cant remember where it was, but i used it when i made these tweaks, and the time was about 1/4 the original once id done it
